A lovely hotel in a great location, making it easy to explore the area.
Pros:

A lovely hotel in a great location, making it easy to explore the area. The staff were exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality - I had a great stay and would gladly recommend this hotel!

Cons:

The airport is quite close, so you can hear planes taking off or landing. But approximately from midnight until morning there are no flights, so it’s not a big issue :)

Pros:

Choisi pour sa proximité à l'aéroport ce qui nous a évité un départ sous stress.

Cons:

Un peu bruyant, avec d'autres clients rentrant tard, ou au contraire quittant l'hôtel tôt pour l'aéroport.
